Good mountains, good water, good people

Once Grain Rain is over, the best season for tea picking is over.

After discussing with his grandfather, Gu Changning decided to stop collecting and frying tea on their side. When the tea was collected that day, he would inform everyone that they would not have to go up the mountain to pick tea from tomorrow, and they would not collect tea on their side. up.

As soon as everyone heard that they no longer accept tea here, when they sold the tea and left, they were not as happy as they used to go back with the money, because this was the last money they got from selling tea this year, so how could everyone Happy.

Gu Changning also understands in his heart that people in the village have made some money by selling tea here for a while, but now that he doesn't accept tea here, it means that everyone's way of getting money is cut off.Recently, most of the people who come to him to sell tea here are elderly people and children. They are a group of people who can’t leave the village to work outside. He doesn’t need so many people to work. Therefore, these older people in the village are all farming in the village, and the main source of income is the harvest in the field, while the children are still young, basically they are still in primary school in the village, and they have not yet arrived. The age to go out to work.

It's just that after all, the work of picking tea is time-limited, it is not a job that can be done all year round, and it cannot be used to make money all the time.

After the day's tea was fried, Gu Changning also paid the tea-stirring masters the wages for the past half a month, because they agreed at the beginning that the wages were calculated on a daily basis, one hundred and fifty a day, half a month. The monthly salary is about [-] yuan per person. "This year we have done the work of frying tea. We will continue to fry tea next year. Then we will notify everyone in advance to come and help."

"This year everyone came to us to fry tea. We didn't fry tea at home. Here is a little tea for everyone to take home for drinking." In addition to the salary, he also gave everyone a bag of tea to return home to drink.

"Hey, good." The masters who were invited to stir-fry tea took a thick wad of money and a bag of tea, and there was a year's ration tea.After thanking the old village chief and Boss Xiao Gu, everyone took the money and tea and went home.

After dinner in the evening, Gu Changning made a pot of tea and went to drink with everyone in the yard. Besides his own family, there were also Master Gao and Brother Qin, and everyone sat and chatted together.

Gu Changning talked about how they collect tea during this period of time, and that everyone sells tea to earn some change, but now he doesn’t accept tea here, and everyone has no chance to make extra money, "Abba, I have a suggestion here , isn’t there water in our rice fields? Why don’t we buy some fish fry and put them in to raise them together. Now the rice flower fish outside are very popular. We have fields and water here, why don’t we raise them too, and then we will have rice harvest There are also fish caught, I can contact people outside to collect the fish, and I am not afraid that they will not be sold."

"That's a good idea." After hearing this, Village Chief Gu thought for a while, and felt that his son's suggestion was a good idea, "I'll hold a meeting with everyone tomorrow to discuss things, and then ask the villagers what they think. If someone is willing to raise them, let’s buy fish fry together and distribute them to everyone.”

The father and son discussed this matter for a while, and the village chief couldn't wait to find someone to discuss it the next day, so he took out his mobile phone and called Secretary Yang and the others to come to their house to discuss things.

Originally, Gu Changning wanted to take his senior brother Qin out for a walk, but his father stopped him and refused to let him go, so he had to stay at home with his father, Secretary Yang, and the others for a meeting.When he came out from the meeting with Village Chief Gu and Secretary Yang, he came out of the house and saw someone standing on the side of the road looking at the scenery along the way. The two of them walked slowly all the way to the back mountain.

The sun set in the west, and the sky is slowly getting dark at this moment...

The next day, Village Chief Gu and Secretary Yang called the people in the village to hold a meeting, and told everyone about raising rice flower fish in the field, and told everyone about this matter in detail, as well as about fish fry, raising fish, etc. I will explain to everyone how to sell fish and how to raise them when they grow up.When they heard that they could make money, most people agreed with it. Only a small number of people were afraid that raising fish in the fields would affect the growth of crops, even though their village chief Gu had repeatedly promised that they would not harm the crops. There are still some people who don't want to take the risk.

After the meeting, Village Chief Gu asked people to register the families willing to raise fish on the spot, and determined the number of fry.But for some people who are unwilling to raise fish, Village Chief Gu will naturally not force others to raise fish.

The matter of raising fish was brought up by Gu Changning, so after the matter was confirmed, he drove his father and village chief Gu to a nearby village to buy a batch of fish fry, and distributed them to the registration office. For fish farmers, everyone blocked the ditch in their fields that day, and put the fish fry in the fields.

After putting the fish fry in the field, everyone likes to squat on the head of the field to see how the fish in the field are doing.It's just that the fish fry just released are still small, and all you can see are some water patterns moving in the water, and the elderly with good eyesight can also see small fish swimming in the water.

The rice in the field cannot be grown in a day, and the fish in the water cannot be grown in a day. If the fish are to grow up, it will have to wait until the rice can be harvested.

The week flies by and it will soon be Friday.

The two agreed to go to the market on Friday night, and Gu Changning was going to go to the city with Qin You, but this time he was going to take his cousin Gu Chunsheng there, and he said hello to his family when he left. "Father, Fuquan, I'll let you take care of the store in the next two days, and the second uncle, if you have anything to do, call us."

Their fresh vegetable shop in the town has been in good business since it opened. From time to time, the shop sells special vegetables. In addition to the original regular customers, it also attracts some new customers. There are many people every day. Go to their shop to buy food.In addition to the promise of fresh fruits and vegetables, their fresh chickens and eggs have always been very popular. The fresh chickens sent over every day can be sold out, and occasionally they are not enough to sell and then kill a batch to send over.

The fresh eggs in their store are not enough to sell every day. The reason is that in addition to the fresh vegetable store, another store also boils a big pot of tea eggs every day, and some eggs are left at home for everyone to eat for breakfast, so Now the speed of chickens laying eggs can't keep up with what they sell.The purchase of eggs in the store is limited every day, and people who have to go early can buy eggs.

"All right, you go, we will definitely be fine if we are in the store." Village head Gu waved to his son, telling him to just go about his business.Now they just changed from driving tricycles to setting up a stall and switching to a shop, and they still sell the same things, not much different from before. These days they go to the shop every day to help, and they know exactly what they need to do.

Uncle Gu also said that there is absolutely no problem, and he can leave it to them with confidence.

Only Gu Fuquan looked at his elder brother with some envy. He also wanted to go to the market with his elder brother, but it was a pity that his elder brother and his elder brother did not take him...

After saying hello to his family, Gu Changning took his cousin and Senior Brother Qin out together.

This day, there are still a few juniors who will go with them to the market. They will have a holiday tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. The few juniors have nothing to do and have made an appointment to travel together for two days before returning. They have bought their train tickets and go to the market in their car. Go by train.

When they left, they drove two cars, Qin You drove one, and Gu Changning also drove his own car. He only took his cousin here, and several younger brothers were in the car. His brother Qin's car.

When he arrived in the city, Qin You sent a few juniors to the train station. On the way, he called the young man and asked him where he was waiting for him.

"Okay, wait for me there, I'll be there in about 10 minutes."

Gu Changning was taking his cousin to the old street where he had dinner with Qin You last time, but it was not the restaurant where they ate mutton hot pot last time. The weather is a bit hot and humid recently. He was afraid that he would get angry after eating mutton, so he followed the Senior Brother Qin recommended a restaurant, and seeing that it was full of seats, he knew that the restaurant recommended by Senior Brother Qin must be good.

After finding a place to work, he first called Qin You, and then called Boss Xiao, asking if Boss Xiao was free to have dinner together.

It's just that Boss Xiao happened to be busy with something right now, so he said he didn't have time to go there.Boss Xiao seemed to be sure that he was with Senior Brother Qin, and finally said "I'll call you later when I finish my work here" and hung up the phone.

Return you?

Well, every time he comes, he comes with Senior Brother Qin. Boss Xiao knows that he is with Senior Brother Qin without guessing.

After hanging up the phone and waiting for a while, they had just finished drinking a cup of tea when they saw Senior Brother Qin coming in.Seeing the man coming, Gu Changning poured him a cup of tea and asked, "Have they caught the train yet?"

"Catch up, the time is still half an hour early, I won't miss it." Qin You took a sip of tea, asked someone to bring the menu to order, and passed the menu to the young man sitting next to him, "You guys Let's see what to eat."

Gu Changning asked the people on the left and right for their opinions, and took the menu to order.

The three of them ate dinner together. The juniors had just boarded the train and bought boxed lunches on the train.

After dinner at night, Gu Changning drove his cousin to a nearby hotel, left his car here, got into Qin You's car, and told his cousin that he would not come back tonight, and waited until tomorrow morning Come and find him again.

Gu Chunsheng watched his lobby brother get into the car and leave, so he turned around and walked in to the hotel. He didn't think of going anywhere else, he just thought that his lobby brother and Master Qin had something to do.
